Abstract
The crystal structure of the title salt is held by N—H⋯Br charge-assisted hydrogen bonds and dipole–dipole interactions. In comparison with reference structures, elongation of C—S bonds is observed.
Herein we report the crystal structure of 2-[(naphthalen-2-yl)methyl]isothiouronium bromide, C12H13N2S+·Br−, which crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c centrosymmetric space group. The asymmetric unit contains one 2-[(naphthalen-2-yl)methyl]isothiouronium cation and one bromide anion. The methylene carbon lies in plane of the naphthalene core. In comparison with reference structures, elongation of C—S bonds as well as tilting of the isothiouronium group is observed. Given the ionic nature of the compound, the structure is held by charge-assisted N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, with a noteworthy contribution of dipole–dipole interactions, which form bilayers in the structure. The bilayers are held by the weak London forces.![]()
